Question

based on this model, which of the following statements correctly illustrates the processes occurring in each labeled layer?
the inner core is where nuclear fusion occurs, converting hydrogen into helium and releasing energy.
the radiative zone is where convection currents primarily occur.
the convective zone transfers energy by radiation from the core toward the outer layers.
the photosphere is where convection currents primarily occur.

Explanation:

The inner core of the Sun is where nuclear fusion occurs, converting hydrogen into helium and releasing energy. The radiative zone transfers energy by radiation from the core toward the outer layers. The convective zone is where convection currents primarily occur. The photosphere is the visible surface of the Sun.

Answer:

The inner core is where nuclear fusion occurs, converting hydrogen into helium and releasing energy.
